CMV: Calling a guy an incel is no different from calling a woman a wh*re
Both terms, Incel and Slut/whore (whatever pejorative sex shaming term towards women) are predicated on shaming a gender due to sexual nature or lack thereof. If a woman sleeps around a lot she's labeled a slut where if a man can't get laid he's called an incel. It's more socially acceptable however to call a man an incel whenever he displays certain behaviors but that same standard isn't granted to women when it comes to being called whres. This is a double standard. I see no reason that justifies using the term incel towards guys with little to no consequence but if you do it to girls you're slt shaming. You can't have it both ways where one gender can't be shamed for their sexual nature while at the same time shaming the other gender for lack there of. I'd like to see and observe a compelling reason to change my view on this standard.
